This study determines the employability of the University of Cebu-Banilad nursing graduates for the year 2011-2014. The findings of which will be sertve as the basis for a proposed action plan. This study utilized a descriptive design using purposive random sampling and with the use of a standardized tool suggested by the Commission on Higher Education (CHED). There were 415 randomly selected respondents. Statistical treatment used simple percentage to analyze the data on the profile of the respondents and ranking to interpret the data that entails multiple responses. Out of 415 respondents of the nursing graduates of University of Cebu-Banilad for S.Y. 2011-2015, most respondents were female; single and were coming from Region VII. Most of the graduates' reasons in taking the course include: prospect of attractive compensation; influence of parents and relatives, and a strong passion for profession; peer influence; prospect for immediate employment. The graduates were employed and had a regular status in their job. Some were temporarily employed; have casual employment status and a few were self-employed. The unemployed graduates' main reasons for their status are absence of job opportunities and lacking work experiences. As to the employment data of the nursing graduates, most were working as a call center agent, staff nurse, customer service representative, ESL teachers; and few were working as police officers. In terms of the competencies learned in college, most of them learned communication skills, human relation skills and problem solving and critical thinking skills. This is congruent and parallel with the faculty's perceived academic competencies that are useful for their graduates. It is concluded that the nursing graduates are generally employable.
